Reviews
Barbara Hinske is already a longtime favorite and she is just as good with her story here.
This novella is written in conjunction with the Rosemont series. She includes many of the characters her readers have come to know and love but this story is built mainly around Judy Young, the owner of Celebrations in the series. This is another great addition to Hinske’s many previous writings.
Have you ever taken a walk through the woods, or across a meadow, or along the beach, or down a hillside trail? You don’t wonder if you’ll ever get home again. You don’t go for the adventure. You go for the enjoyment – the simple pleasure of seeing and hearing what’s along the way. You’re not disappointed if you weren’t snapped at by a barking dog. You’re not disappointed that you weren’t mugged. You weren’t looking for excitement. No, you took the walk to just for the pleasure of it all.
And that’s exactly what you’ll get – enjoyment (with a scoop of joy) — reading “No Matter How Far.”
I have read all of the books in Barbara’s Rosemont series.I was eager to revisit Westbury. This is a wonderful Christmas story and you don’t have to have read the series to enjoy it. It may give you a desire to do just that. I highly recommend this be added to your TBR list.
In the story you return to the town of Westbury where it feels like coming home again. Follow along with Judy Young, the owner of the store Celebrations, as she makes an impulse purchase of an Old Victorian home sold for back taxes. The purchase leads her down a path of apprehension and exploration with unexpected results. A real feel-good story just in time for the holidays.
